Hellooooooooooooooooooo ladies
I'm back !!!!!!
After nearly 3 years, I have just read where some of you are up to. I recently found JacciPG on Facebook, so I'm reasonably up with her goings on
Well whats happening with us.
As with all of us, the magic 4 is rapidly approaching. How has this happened. Seemed just like the other day we had brought them home from the hospital after being born
Jordy is doing brilliantly. He is currently going to daycare 4 days a week - its about 100m from home. He can talk under wet concrete and has an amazing sense of humour. A week or so ago he cracked the 1m mark in height, no idea where in the scale of things that puts him, but its still a milestone
Last year was a bit of trouble - some may remember me saying he was born with something not quite right at the back of his throat. Well basically from what we eventually learnt after finding a decent paedatrician (and going through half a dozen others who said "its just childhood asthma, here's another ventolin script - thats $1billion fee for my 5 minutes)... his enlarged sort of tonsils/adenoids cause him to cough, which irritates his throat, which causes mucous, which eventually gets infected, occasionally then going down into his lungs and sometimes turning into pneumonia
We had 3 admissions to hospital last year... this aint asthma you idiots.
Anyway, last guy we say said if he gets sick again, just ring, I'll see him right away, no matter of time or day of week. We saw him on a Monday lunchtime a few weeks later, he gave us a powerful drug to use, and jordy was all clear by the Thursday when we were due to take him back. Wow, what a recovery that stuff did.
He had a sleep study early January which did show enlarged T's and A's - I see someone else had them removed recently ??. But his are borderline as to leaving them in... so we'll see. On 2 drugs which we give him at night... a nasal spray and a puffer (done like ventolin, but its different)... this seems to be helping.
He loves his swimming, and loves the Pixar Cars movie, plus various others. Oh and Ben10 has been a massive hit lately.
Oh and books. Does he ever tire of them... nup. Another one please mummy or daddy
Me: I kept working at home until 2.5 months ago, when I was no longer working on the Australian Customs account with work. And since I could not find another client to work on, I've just been made redundant. 3.5 weeks to go til March 26 unless I find something else to do here
I've been sitting alongside a contractor working in a completely different field, but learning off him. Hoping I might do some contracting in that subject once I've finished.
Jen is still working like crazy hence Jordy in daycare... otherwise she would be much happier being a his mum full time... but knows he loves his daycare, even when he says he doesnt want to go - I have a sore tummy daddy. Hmm, not likely mate. He has his teachers rapped around his little finger. Gives them all a cuddle or at least a wave at the end of the day
Hope some of you are still around. Congrats to all who have gone on to additional family members, and Amy, sorry to hear of your loss.
Cheers
Andrew
